A sheriff in New Mexico says he will no longer enforce the state's 'restrictive' COVID-19 stay at home order because he believes it breaches constitutional rights. Bernalillo County Sheriff Manny Gonzales, who oversees the city of Albuquerque, accused some of the state's politicians of 'turning everyday citizens into villains'.
